These people are raising their eyebrows at some recent thrift store finds. They're not surprised at the great deals… instead, they're annoyed at the condition of the stores and the prices of the items! Thrift shopping or antique shopping can be very hit or miss. Sometimes you find excellent clothing, a barely-worn pair of shoes, or some toys for the kids that are still in great condition. Instead of spending hundreds at a regular store, you can get some cheap stuff and feel good about saving th…

Never mess with a flight attendant. This lady was in a relationship with her pilot boyfriend and often stayed at his apartment when she was off and while he was still working. Unfortunately, she discovered that he had an entirely separate relationship with another girlfriend, who was staying at his second apartment in Hong Kong. It must be fairly easy to cheat and hide the truth when your job is to travel all over the world. Thankfully, this lady was not going to go without a fight. Before leav…

B-B-B-B-But you could work 60 hour weeks and be our regional distract manager of financial operations

Depending on your age, you probably had a teacher who constantly reprimanded students for having their phones out in class or even just the presence of any sort of technology or devices that they felt detracted from their lessons. When you get out of school, you come to find that some managers operate in exactly the same way, seemingly confusing effective management with policing their workers as if they were still children. You've probably worked for one of these places or one of these microma…

Proofreading: who needs it? Not the boss at this company that u/drakon99 freelanced for! Next up, read about the people who said some hilarious things while sleeptalking, like one person who was a witness as “One kid shouted 'I SEE THE LIGHT!' and then sleepwalked into a wall .”

Fur babies are JUST as important...

The first day of starting a new job is not at all as exciting as one imagines it to be. You always expect it to be a great new adventure and that people will welcome you with open arms, but that is often not the case. There are so many logistics when it comes to adding a new employee to a company, that the first day is usually just a chaotic bureaucratic mess, and you might go home at the end of the day and question whether or not you made a mistake. The important thing to remember is that ever…

No one likes to be told what to do, especially after working hours. In theory, it's simple to remember that after your employee has clocked out, they are in no way entitled to follow your direction as a manager. However, every so often, we come across a story where someone takes that mentality a bit too far. In this instance , we have an employee who was strictly told when he was first onboarded to never take on extra responsibilities after he clocks out. That's a nice, mutually beneficial work…

"Craziest part about it is he’s going to be gone for a week despite complaining about availability issues."

Your inconvenience is not my problem.

We all get a little weird and crazy about our pets; that's part of what you sign up for when you devote a significant portion of your time, energy, and financial resources to a fluffy little ball of chaos living with you in your home. I'd argue that, in fact, the entire concept is a little bit crazy, and if you weren't already when you decided to get a furry friend, I promise you that you will soon be driven so. Still, no matter how much we consider our pets members of our families, even the mo…

This person was having a major problem with their mail . It's almost the exact opposite problem of what many people deal with. A lot of folks get their mail stolen: whether it's packages or letters, some people will steal it. Other mail gets lost in transit somewhere, never to be seen again. But for this person, mail was piling up at their house, and almost all of it was for someone else! That probably happens to everyone from time to time: getting mail from a previous tenant or a letter for an…

Every so often, one feels the urge to write a review of a local restaurant online… If you're a good customer and a decent human being, you likely feel this urge when you want to shine a light on great food, great service, and all-around great vibes. Those kinds of reviews can boost the online profile of a small place and can really help draw in customers. Now, if you're an entitled Karen customer, you may feel the urge to write an online review because you just have to air your grievances to th…

This CEO is about as foolish as you can get. You don't have to tell that to his employees, like u/Chairfighter, who have to put up with his shenanigans no matter what the cost. They just have to roll their eyes and do what the higher-ups say. After that, read about the funniest sleepwalking or sleeptalking incidents people have ever witnessed, such as: “One kid shouted 'I SEE THE LIGHT!' and then sleepwalked into a wall .”

Calling out sick when you need the money is not something employees want to do. Of course, most managers don't even consider this. They just assumed that the sick employee is just lazy, when in reality, it often takes a lot of effort and strength to admit to oneself and to others that you're not well enough to do your job today. As for how this manager reacted to an employee's health update, it should be up to the manager to find last-minute coverage; that is, after all, a manager's role. Emplo…

For most of us, finding out that there's a person living in our crawlspace under our home is an unsettling thought... But this woman was decidedly level-headed and compassionate after discovering a transient person hiding under her floorboards.
